There was a squirrel delay in The Bronx.

Midway through the fourth inning of the Yankees’ game against the Red Sox on Friday, a squirrel darted across the field, causing a brief interruption in play.

The Yankees’ broadcasting booth first noticed the squirrel when it ran into Red Sox outfielder Jhostynxon Garcia while he was at the plate.

“Wow, he just ran into Garcia’s foot,” Yankees announcer Michael Kay said on the broadcast. “Now he’s checking out [Max] Fried, and the hole that Fried lands in.”
